Frances (May 2005), Norte (May 2006), Vezelay (2007).
No...not the Camino Frances but just the Camino to Santiago de Compostella which is starting......from your house.

I know a few Dutch people who walked from their home to Santiago through France and after the Pyrenees they take the CF. Total km: 2700!!

Just curious about people here who walked the route from Namur(Namen) in Belgium to Vezelay in France.

Thinking about doing that route from Vitry-le-Francois to Vezelay on April 16th......any info is welcome!

How many left Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port on 1 May?

I started out from Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port on 1 May. It turned out to be an unforgetable day. Above 1,000 m or so it snowed, catching many people unprepared. Later that day "many" walkers were...
